Sandbox link

Apologies for writing in English. Please feel free to translate my text.

I'm holding a global RFC regarding Sandbox link (example) at Meta: m:Requests for comment/Enable sandbox for all Wikipedias. I was told by User:Lucas Werkmeister that Cebuano Wikipedia as a large project does not have Sandbox link enabled.

• Does Cebuano Wikipedia want the Sandbox link enabled?

If there is consensus for enabling that on Cebuano Wikipedia, I will do that as part of the global settings. But if Cebuano Wikipedia does not want that, I can simply omit the Cebuano Wikipedia from my proposal. No hard feelings at all :) I have personally not found Sandbox links harmful in any way, shape, or form. Thanks 4nn1l2 (talk) 02:26, 19 Pebrero 2022 (UTC)

Invitation to participate in the #WPWPCampaign 2022

Dear Wikimedians,

We are glad to inform you that the 2022 edition of Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos campaign is coming up in July.

This is a formal invitation to invite individuals and communities to join the campaign to help improve Wikipedia articles with photos and contextual images.

The campaign will run from July 1 to August 31, 2022 and several communities and Wikimedia Affiliates have already indicated interest to organize the campaign in their localities. Please find your community or community closer to you to participate: WPWP2022 Campaign: Participating Communities.

The campaign primarily aims to promote using images from Wikimedia Commons to enrich Wikipedia articles that are lacking them. Participants will choose among Wikipedia pages without photos, then add a suitable file from among the many thousands of photos in the Wikimedia Commons, especially those uploaded from thematic contests (Wiki Loves Africa, Wiki Loves Earth, Wiki Loves Folklore, etc.) over the years. In this third edition of the campaign, eligibility criteria have been revised based on feedback and campaign Evaluation Reports of the previous editions. Please find more details about these changes and our FAQ here on Meta-Wiki

Enabling Section Translation: a new mobile translation experience

Hello Cebuano Wikipedians!

Apologies as this message is not in Cebuano language, Please help translate to your language.

The WMF Language team is pleased to let you know that we will like to enable the Section translation tool in Cebuano Wikipedia. For this, our team will love you to read about the tool and test it so you can:

• Give us your feedback
• Ask us questions
• Tell us how to improve it.

Below is background information about Section translation, why we have chosen your community, and how to test it.

Background information

Content Translation has been a successful tool for editors to create content in their language. More than one million articles have been created across all languages since the tool was released in 2015. The Wikimedia Foundation Language team has improved the translation experience further with the Section Translation. The WMF Language team enabled the early version of the tool in February 2021 in Bengali Wikipedia. Through their feedback, the tool was improved and ready for your community to test and help us with feedback to make it better.

Section Translation extends the capabilities of Content Translation to support mobile devices. On mobile, the tool will:

• Guide you to translate one section at a time in order to expand existing articles or create new ones.
• Make it easy to transfer knowledge across languages anytime from your mobile device.

Cebuano Wikipedia seems an ideal candidate to enjoy this new tool since it has Content Translation tool enabled by default.

We plan to enable the tool on Cebuano Wikipedia in the coming weeks if there are no objections from your community. After it is enabled, we’ll monitor the content created with the tool and process all the feedback. In any case, feel free to raise any concerns or questions you may already have in any of the following formats:

• As a reply to this message
• On the project talk page.

Try the tool

Before the enablement, you can try the current implementation of the tool in our testing instance. Once it is enabled on Cebuano Wikipedia, you’ll have access to https://ceb.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:ContentTranslation with your mobile device. You can select an article to translate, and machine translation will be provided as a starting point for editors to improve.

Provide feedback

Please provide feedback about Section translation in any of the formats you are most comfortable with. We want to hear about your impressions on:

• The tool
• What you think about our plans to enable it
• Your ideas for improving the tool.

Thanks, and we look forward to your feedback and questions.

PS: Sending your feedback or questions in English is particularly appreciated. But, you can still send them in the language of your choice.

UOzurumba (WMF) (talk) 04:47, 11 Agosto 2022 (UTC) On behalf of the WMF Language team

Section Translation tool enabled in Cebuano Wikipedia

Hello Friends!

The Language team is pleased to let you know that the Section Translation tool is now enabled in Cebuano Wikipedia. It means you can translate real content one section at a time using your mobile devices with ease.

Now you can also start translating an article on your mobile device right when you notice it is missing in Cebuano. From a Wikipedia article in any language, switch languages and search for Cebuano. If the article does not exist, an option to translate it will appear, as shown in the image below.

Image of the entry point

Content created with the tool will be marked with the “sectiontranslation” tag for the community to review. We’ll monitor the content created, but we are very interested in hearing about your experience using the tool and reviewing the content created with it.

So, enjoy the tool and provide feedback on improving it.

Thank you!

For anyone who might be interested in biography and in this particular material, this article in the Cebuano language Wikipedia can use a little more biographical content to help fill it out. Thank you. Nicola Mitchell (talk) 12:32, 26 Agosto 2022 (UTC)

The Vector 2022 skin as the default in two weeks?

The slides for our presentation at Wikimania 2022

Hello. I'm writing on behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation Web team. In two weeks, we would like to make the Vector 2022 skin the default on this wiki.

We have been working on it for the past three years. So far, it has been the default on more than 30 wikis, including sister projects, all accounting for more than 1 billion pageviews per month. On average 87% of active logged-in users of those wikis use Vector 2022.

It would become the default for all logged-out users, and also all logged-in users who currently use Vector legacy. Logged-in users can at any time switch to any other skins. No changes are expected for users of these skins.

• Top of an article
• 
  Vector legacy (current default)
• 
  Vector 2022

• A section of an article
• 
  Vector legacy (current default)
• 
  Vector 2022

About the skin

[Why is a change necessary] The current default skin meets the needs of the readers and editors as these were 13 years ago. Since then, new users have begun using Wikimedia projects. The old Vector doesn't meet their needs.

[Objective] The objective for the new skin is to make the interface more welcoming and comfortable for readers and useful for advanced users. It draws inspiration from previous requests, the Community Wishlist Surveys, and gadgets and scripts. The work helped our code follow the standards and improve all other skins. We reduced PHP code in Wikimedia deployed skins by 75%. The project has also focused on making it easier to support gadgets and use APIs.

[Changes and test results] The skin introduces a series of changes that improve readability and usability. The new skin does not remove any functionality currently available on the Vector skin.

• The sticky header makes it easier to find tools that editors use often. It decreases scrolling to the top of the page by 16%.
• The new table of contents makes it easier to navigate to different sections. Readers and editors jumped to different sections of the page 50% more than with the old table of contents. It also looks a bit different on talk pages.
• The new search bar is easier to find and makes it easier to find the correct search result from the list. This increased the amount of searches started by 30% on the wikis we tested on.
• The skin does not negatively affect pageviews, edit rates, or account creation. There is evidence of increases in pageviews and account creation across partner communities.

[Try it out] Try out the new skin by going to the appearance tab in your preferences and selecting Vector 2022 from the list of skins.

How can editors change and customize this skin?

It's possible to configure and personalize our changes. We support volunteers who create new gadgets and user scripts. Check out our repository for a list of currently available customizations, or add your own.

Our plan

If no large concerns are raised, we plan on deploying in the week of October 3, 2022. If your community would like to request more time to discuss the changes, hit the button and write to us. We can adjust the calendar.

Request for more time to discuss the change

If you'd like ask our team anything, if you have questions, concerns, or additional thoughts, please ping me here or write on the talk page of the project. We will gladly answer! Also, see our FAQ. Thank you! SGrabarczuk (WMF) (talk) 04:14, 22 Septiyembre 2022 (UTC)

Allowing Wikitext editors to preview changes in realtime

Please help translate to your language

Hello!

Community Tech has introduced a new beta feature. It allows editors to preview their changes side by side when writing in wikitext. The goal is to make it easier to review changes while editing. This was the wish number four of the Community Wishlist Survey 2021.

What does this feature change?

In the 2010 wikitext editor toolbar, a new button appears with the label “Preview”. The button enables a side by side comparison showing what the published content would look like. You can see an illustrative example on the screenshot.

We would like to check if the editing experience improves. If it does, we will make this change available for everyone by default.

What do I need to do?

If you want to try out our feature, make sure the New Wikitext mode beta feature is DISABLED. Feel free to provide feedback about the impact this new feature has on your editing experience.

See also: the original wish • the project page.

Thank you! ––– STei (WMF) (talk) 17:27, 29 Septiyembre 2022 (UTC)

Update on Vector 2022

Hello. I'm sorry for not communicating in your language. I'll be grateful if you translated my message. I'm writing on behalf of the Web team working on the new skin, Vector 2022.

We wanted to apologize for the delays in the deployment of Vector 2022. We know many of you are waiting for this eagerly. We have been delaying the deployment because we have been working on the logos. It has taken us more time than originally expected. Once the logos are ready, we will let you know the exact date of deployment. We are planning for either the next (more likely) or the following week. If your wiki doesn't currently have a localized logo, we encourage you to reach out to us and we can help make one.

We invite you to get involved in the project. Contact us if you have any questions or need any help, particularly with the compatibility of gadgets and user scripts. Thank you! SGrabarczuk (WMF) (talk) 23:24, 19 Oktubre 2022 (UTC)

Mahitongod sa Pagkapahisamahan sa Pagpamatik (Concerning the Standardization of Spelling)

Maayo nga adlaw kaninyo tanan! Sa manga bomobasa ni'ini nga pamolonga, togota ko nga magpa'ila'ila kaninyo. Ako si John Clement Husain, osa ka gomagamit sa Wikipidya ug nalahay sa Sinogbo'anon nga pinolongan. Nakita' nako' nga kowang (dili' ra dinhi sa Wikipidya apan sa kadaghanan pud sa manga mantala'anan nga magsinogbo'anon) ang kapahisamahan sa pagpamatik sa Sinogbo'anon nga pinolongan. Ug ma'o nga, sa paglimbasog ni'ani nga holosayona, nakalalang ko og manga batakan nga, kon i'usa, motokod ingon kapahisamahan sa pagpamatik. Awhagon tamo, manga pinalangga' nga bomabasa, nga panombalingon ni nga manga batakan. Hinganlan ni nako' og Kapahisamahan sa Pagpamatik sa Sinogbo'anon nga Pinolongan (KPSP)

Mahitongod sa manga Patik (On Letters)

Ang manga matingog nga gamiton ma'o ang: A/a [ʌ], I/i [ɪ], ug O/o [ʊ].

(Manga kasalikwa'otan: sa osa ra ka sanglit magamit ang U/u ug didto ra sa tigsompay nga ug aron ma'ila ni gikan sa dili' matonongon nga dili' matino'on nga matagsa'on nga matibok'anon nga timaan sa kaso, og)

Ang manga bomabagay nga gamiton ma'o ang: B/b [b], D/d [d], G/g [g], H/h [h], Dy/dy [dʒ], K/k [k], L/l [l], M/m [m], N/n [n], Ng/ng [ŋ], P/p [p], R/r [r], S/s [s], Sy/sy [ʃ], T/t [t], Ty/ty [tʃ], W/w [w], Y/y [j], ug ' [ʔ].

Pananglitan, pina'agi sa pama'agi nga gigamit karon, ang basa (pagkahitohopan og tobig) ug basa (pagkasabot sa manga patik ngadto sa polong) sama ra og pagpamatik. Sa kininiha nga kapahisamahan, pamatikon ni ngadto sa basa' ug basa, sa sinagonson (bantayi ang " ' ", di'in nagtogyan sa tingog nga /ʔ/).

Manga Batakan sa Pagpamatik (Rules of Spelling)

(a) Mahitongod sa Langyaw nga manga Polong (On Foreign Words)

Kinahanglan ipamatik ni nga manga polonga agad sa gi'onsa ni og paghilwas ug paglitok. Pananglitan, ang langyaw nga polong nga Wiktionary kinahanglan ipamatik ni ngadto sa Wiksyonari, ang Wikipedia mahimo' og Wikipidya, ang Automobile mahimo' og Otomobil, ubp.

(a) [1] Mahitongod sa manga Matingog nga tag'as (On Long Vowels)

Kon adonay ta'as nga matingog, itapad ra ang mao nga manga tingog. Pananglitan, kon taas nga a [ʌː], ipamatik ingon aa; kon taas nga i [ɪː], ii; ug kon o [ʊː], "oo". Pananglitan nga polong, enable, ipamatik ngadto sa iniibol.

(a) [2] Mahitongod sa Langyaw nga manga Tingog (On Foreign Sounds)

Manga Bomabagay:
Z [z] -> s
V [v] -> b
F [f] -> p
E [ɛ] -> i 
O [o] -> o
U [u] -> o

(madapat ni sa bisan onsa nga dolodo'ol nga tingog)

Manga Matingog:
ey [ɛɪ] -> ii
ow [oʊ] -> oo

(madapat ni sa bisan onsa nga dolodo'ol nga tingog)

(b) Mahitongod sa Paggamit sa Honong sa Totonlan, /'/ (On the Use of the Glottal Stop, /'/)

Kon ang matingog adona sa atobangan, dili' na kinahanglan gamiton ang /'/ tongod kay nagpa'ila ni da'an nga adonay  '  sa atobangan ni'ini. Kondili', kinahanglan botngan. Pananglitan atobang, ihi' , bat'ang, hona'hona', ubp.

Pananglitan nga Pamolong sa Kinaron nga Pama'agi

Natawo tanan tawo nga magawasnon ug nanagsama og katungod ug dungog. Gigasa-an sila og salabotan ug paghibalo ug kinahanglan makigmanag-igso-onayay sa osa sa osa.

Pananglitan nga Pamolong sa KPSP

Natawo tanan tawo nga magawasnon ug nanagsama og katongod ug dongog. Gigasa'an sila og salabotan ug paghibalo ug kinahanglan makigmanag'igso'onayay sa osa sa osa.

Adona pa koy manga ikadogang ni'ini pohon. Kon adona moy kotana, kon ikasogyot, ayaw kahadlok og pagpahibaw. Salamat sa pagbasa! John Clement Husain (talk) 17:42, 22 Oktubre 2022 (UTC)

Përmbajtja e ardhshme është nga përkthimi i uebsajtit dhe kuptimi mund të jetë i paragjykuar. Përshëndetje, jam përdorues nga Wikipedia Kineze. Gjeta [1]? Nuk e di nëse është gabim kur roboti krijon hyrje. Mund të ndihmosh të kontrollosh dhe ta korrigjosh? Faleminderit!--Evesiesta (talk) 10:03, 28 Disyembre 2022 (UTC)

I translate it back and find that it didn't convey what I want to say.So I will try my best to repeat it once again in a English.

When I translated articles into Chinese,I found part of the title of Zhangyelu (kapital sa gatos sa Pangmasang Republika sa Tśina, Gansu Sheng, lat 36,06, long 103,82) may have something wrong.I tried translating it into Chinese and it said that "Zhangyelu"is the capital of China.Maybe something wrong when the bot creating the article.Please help me check if anything goes wrong and change it back rightly.Best wishes.
